Hi

i need to make a script for a complete dev env for linux and i like to know how to script the myeclipse (set installation path, set silent mode …) ?

Can anyone help ?

Thanks,

Fabien

Fabien,
You would likely find the best success with using the Manual install of MyEclipse (just a zip file) and then the only think you need to do is create a <Eclipse dir>\links file with the appropriate name and contents pointing to the location of the unzipped MyEclipse install.

If you run the installer, it will create the \links file for you, so you can copy the name and the format of the contents and use it in your script to create the correctly named file with the correct type of contents (your Path in the generated file will naturally be different I imagine).

Quick refernece:
The file will need to be named: “com.genuitec.eclipse.MyEclipse.link” and the contents is in the format of:
path=<some path>

Where <some path> can be “C:\\MyEclipse” for example, note the double escaped backslashes on Windows.

Yes, that’s why there is only 1 to download 😉
